Prologue

To my dearest Will,

Once in a while, Lord Hades can be generous. When you were exceptionally good in your former life, he will grant you another chance in the living, either being reborn or being a death angel like me. Bianca and I must have been good in our former lives that Lord Hades has given us a chance like that. But sometimes, I wonder if it's really better that I have come back to the living like this. The truth is, I envy those normal people who do normal activities, unlike someone who escorts souls in the afterlife.

Most of the time, I wish that I was just reborn as a normal person. But then again, if I were reborn as a normal person, would we ever meet? Would our paths cross if I wasn't a death angel? So somehow, I couldn't really complain that I have become a death angel. I met you, after all. Maybe there won't be a William Solace in my life if I have not become a death angel. I am truly grateful that I met you.

I Love You.

The purpose of this letter is just so I could tell you how much you truly mean to me and how much I truly love you. I know this letter is not enough to express whatever I feel towards you. I couldn't believe it either. How could this dead heart of mine carry this huge feeling towards you Will? What have you done to my heart that it beats back alive again? Mortals said that love can make you selfish. I can attest to that. Because there are times that I want to keep you to myself. I want to hold you and never let you go, always. But of course, time will always flow and we can't be stuck at the same moment even if sometimes we badly wanted too.

There's this thing that you mortals believe, it was called 'fate'. I like the idea of fate. They say that if you're truly meant to be together, no matter what the circumstances are, fate will always bring you together. If I were to be reborn again or I would be given a chance again in the living as a normal guy (hypothetically speaking) and if ever there's really this thing called fate, I would like as to meet again. Because in this world, there is no other person I would like to meet all over again, other than you, Will. Even on different circumstances or even if I became a different person; somehow I am sure that I will still be able to recognize you because you are a part of me too.

You are forever going to be part of me, my favorite enemy, Will Solace.

Love Always,

Nico di Angelo
